We may not know the purpose of our respective skills and abilities or the direction to which they are prone. Nevertheless, if we allow them their due, just because something 'inside' compels us - we become more.  We find in the yielding, times when we feel wholly at peace. We know it is the trail that we must take and even though the ride and the perfection of our skills may require our whole life be spent without ever realizing the fruits of the endeavor, it's okay. Somehow, we know we are fulfilling our destiny.
